Broadcast to a group

Now to boradcast would I need to do it from a client?

Yep, you need to send messages to special addresses. There are two choices:

all@broadcast.[server] or @broadcast.[server]

where groupName is the name of a group and is the name of your server.

Another question,

In the property “plugin broadcast allowed”

the only value is my username ‘‘dlocas’’

yet anyone can still broadcast to a specific group by right clicking the group and choosing “send message to group”

If I only specified dlocas, shouldnt only that person be able to broadcast?

Donn

yet anyone can still broadcast to a specific group by

right clicking the group and choosing "send message

to group"

That’'s a feature of your client, not the broadcast plugin. The client implements that as sending a different message to each user in the roster. The broadcast plugin works by sending a single message to a special address.
